Abstract:
A system and method are disclosed for error corrected data transmission using an error detection and retry scheme. Data frames are sent from a transmitting chip to a receiving chip either formatted as PHITs or combined, compressed, and formatted as ePHITs. The ePHIT formatting includes hashing one or more CRC with a sequence number that is generated in the receiver. Upon error detection, a retry operation may retransmit the data in a different format than the original transmission.
Abstract:
A first frame and a second frame are combined into an extended frame. The extended frame is encapsulated and transmitted over a channel as an extended physical digital. A transmission error notification is received, indicating error in a reception of the transmitted extended physical digital. In response, a re-transmission encapsulates the first frame into a first physical digit, transmits the first physical digit over the channel, encapsulates the second frame into a second physical digit, and transmits the second physical digit over the channel.
